MGS: Peace Walker dated

Hideo Kojima’s Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker will be released on the PSP in the UK on May 28th next year, publisher Konami has confirmed.

Described as “the next true chapter in the story of the legendary Special Ops expert Snake”, the game is a sequel to PS2 classic Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Unlike titles such as Metal Gear Acid, Peace Walker is very much a ‘proper’ stealth instalment in the series.

“Metal Gear Solid fans should prepare themselves for the next chapter of Snake’s story,” series creator Hideo Kojima stated.

“Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker will answer many of the series’ unanswered questions and showcase a different, more collaborative side to tactical espionage.”
